Welcome to the Prairie Schooner Taphouse, an independent bar and off-licence in Urmston. We’re named after the wagons covered in sailcloth which crossed the American West in pioneer days.
We specialise in real ale from local brewers on our four hand pumps as well as eight craft kegs. We also have a selection of real cider, fine wine, fizz, single malt whiskies and small-batch spirits sourced as much as possible from local independent producers.
We have a large selection of beer and cider in our fridges to take away, or crack one open for a relaxing tipple in our drinking parlour free from loud music and sports TV.
Find our calendar of events on Facebook for details about our weekly quizzes, tastings, live music nights, DJ sessions and Bring Your Own Vinyl.

Wouldn’t bother, staff are arrogant - all think they’re working in the Savoy. Beers are overpriced and bang average. Cue a passive aggressive and patronising response from the ‘owner’, who constantly looks as though he’s been told he’s got months to live.
Great place... Great beer on draught, Cask, keg, bottles and cans Definitely recommend. Staff are very nice and happy to recommend your beer! Craft beer experts! 👍
Lovely little bar, great decor and large selection of beers at reasonable prices. Very impressed with the belgian selection.
Love the Schooner. Beautiful atmosphere and very friendly staff peeps. Selection of beers is fantastic. Plus good for quality gins and whisky too. Highly recommended.
Nice small bar, friendly staff. Not a lot on draft for a craft beer place but enough. Worth a trip but only if your in the area.
